Description

Olive frame, faint blue-grey lens. The hi-c chrome hearts nerd glasses put a translucent olive green acetate around a squared lens shape, with a tint so light that it reads more like a glass sheen than sunglasses. Silver cross castings sit at each hinge, and there’s another small cross at the brow end of each arm. Etched cross on the lower right lens. Arms are the same olive, tapering slightly towards the tip. Frame thickness is moderate, more classic spectacle than chunky statement piece.

Why Choose This Product?

A light tint is the most useful lens there is. Too dark for indoors is the problem with most sunglasses, and this pair solves it by barely tinting at all. You can wear them at a table, in a bar, walking outside, without swapping. Olive is also a quieter colour than the brighter green in the range, so these read as a spectacle rather than a fashion statement. Easiest pair here to wear all day.

Care Instructions

Microfibre only, and rinse first if there’s grit on the lens. Light tints show smears clearly so clean them more often than you would a dark pair. Translucent acetate picks up fingerprints along the brow, wipe that too. No hot cars, heat warps acetate permanently. Case them when they’re off, don’t push them onto your head, and get an optician to tighten hinge screws if the arms start to loosen.

FAQs

Are these sunglasses?
Only just. The tint is very light, so they work indoors as well as out.

What colour is the frame exactly?
Translucent olive green. Darker and more muted than the brighter green pair in the range.

Can I get prescription lenses fitted?
Yes, the frame takes them. An optician can swap the tinted lenses out.

Do they slide down the nose?
The acetate has enough weight to sit steady. If they slip, an optician can adjust the arm bend.

Is the tint the same across the lens?
Yes, it’s an even light tint rather than a gradient.
